In the PAR Inc. example from chapter 2, the solutions were not integer values. Does this make sense for this application? Is this a general property of Linear Programming problems? Explain why rounding or truncating non-integer values for the solutions is not an appropriate method for obtaining integer solutions.

Solution

the solution have to be rounded to the nearest value, to make calculations easier, it should be happen. and yes, it makes sense and gives only the nearest and approximate values only.

it is one of the limitation of linear programming models.
